data-mm-id=”_ssu68i5pq”>Viewers tuning into the Valero Alamo Bowl Tuesday night night could not help but notice that Texas Longhorns linebacker DeMarvion Overshown was sporting an unusual number of armbands. Couples who have long passed the point of having anything to say to each other may have had one party ask if it was just him or did that guy have more than the minimum required pieces of flair on, only to be shot down with a one-word reply. And maybe that guy feels a certain sense of vindication this afternoon after Overshown himself addressed his viral turn. Absolutely no perspiration on this mans left hand pic.twitter.com/3n44fyRJ0g— Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) December 30, 2020Speculation has it that I may have had on 7 armbands. Sources confirm that it was indeed 8. Gotta keep it even ?— DeMarvion Overshown (@AGENT0__) December 30, 2020Eight armbands. On one arm. An Alamo Bowl record for sure. Perhaps an NCAA mark as well. Someone alert the people at Guinness World Records. Overshown has now carved out his gimmick. He has no competition in the space. Playing chess while the others wear one measly armband at a time.

Market: Guarani win
Odds: 7/10 @
Hoping to make an immediate return to winning ways this weekend, Guarani will welcome Londrina to the Brinco de Ouro da Princesa on Saturday afternoon.
